Match Thread Crystal Palace 2-2 Everton - Sunday 10th May 14:00

[Blue Roo]

Moyes is going to have to address his own shortfalls - as another game that should have been put to bed passes by - or by mid season FG gonna have to bring in someone new.
And new signings have to be about mentality and knowing how to win as a team as much as positional.
It's not like we're starting a long way back though.

Well, we can't try and keep ashley young this summer as mr versatility.
I expect coleman is done.
I expect patterson will get a move.

That's a lot of weekly wage budget suddenly freed up.

We haven't flirted with relegation this summer and have played some ok stuff in parts.

I reckon we get another Grealish loan. Striker will see movement. I'd be happy with a capable mid 20's RB that can hold his own. We've been spoiled with Coleman, Digne and Baines. Has shown up the paucity since.

Patterson is out of contract isn't he ? I think it is written in stone that Young won't be here next season ,I agree Seamus is done but no Grealish for me -too expensive and too old ,great player but could be over the hill next season and for 20mill plus outlay with no return it seems a panic signing. We need Moyes out and Glasner in or in fact anyone who understands Plan B or at least has one .

You simply can't go round facing facts, applying logic, and being fair minded around here, mate. You should be hysterically demanding we finish in the top 3 and win a cup, like the Make Everton Great Again zealots who are unfortunately so prevalent on this site.

So are you happy ?

No way he scores Beto's goal

No way Beto will again .It was a cracking goal but not typical of him.

Ask yourself if you've of taken mid table 9 months ago. Would you have said yes. You would have said yes. Accept this form on success and move on, look up, and have hope. We are [Poor language removed]

I think lots were targeting that mid 50s points area. Need to win both to get that now. We should have been there 3 games ago. Hopefully we still get there.

If we hit 55 and get top 10 it’s on track. 53 points is fine but a little disappointing. Anything less and I think it’s a poor season given what Moyes did last season.

 

[st.domingo]

Some of them looking waaaaaay knackered and the season can't end soon enough.

Don't think the extended break after Chelsea did anyone any favours.

 

[st.domingo]

Gave MoM to the Betonater - that goal was Lukaku-esque!

 

[Pabbers]

Dead on their feet some of them, thats why we are losing points late on.

Moyes needs to get using that bench, or atleast fill it with players he will use.

We are a decent team till about the last 15 of games.

Lol at Moyes addressing his own shortfalls. I've never heard him admit any in the last 20 years.

Game of small margins, Moyes getting the usual battering in here but if Dewsbury Hall had buried his chances (which he absolutely should have done) we would be having a different conversation today.

Will be hard for Young to be here next season considering he plays for Ipswich this last season and has just said he is retiring.

Don't count on it

He is too stubborn and arrogant to do that; thinks he is a brilliant manager, but actually he is just a weak mentality, safety first manager.

No we would not have had a different conversation - I would have still wanted him sacked at the end of the season.

You have to look at the season holistically, we have been good in one or two matches, ok in parts, poor for the remainder.

We have been lucky in two or three of those away matches to come away with the points.

Looking at us blowing out of our arses you would have that it was us who had only played a game a few days before and not Palace.
